Earls Court stays on top with Scafftag
December 11th 2006 Scafftag’s Laddertag and Multitag system is being used by Earls Court and Olympia; two of London’s most successful and popular event venues.
The tagging system comprises a highly visible durable plastic holder with a plastic insert clearly indicating if the ladder is fit to be used. The use of tagging systems on mobile and fixed applications such as ladders and stairways helps ensure safety at Earls Court and Olympia, reflecting the groups’ commitment to care for the safety of their employees who work on over 1000 events each year.
The Laddertag system helps to give accountability and a clear, recorded visible indicator of ladder safety and maintenance. Earls Court also uses the Yellow Book to complement to the Laddertag for its risk assessment. It helps the organisation keep a track on all the inspection checks that have been carried out and contains up to date government legislation and guidance on safety and maintenance requirements.
Senior Health and Safety Manager of Earls Court and Olympia, Michael Anderson says: “Scafftag has a long and respected reputation. I first heard of the company and its products twenty years ago where it was used on construction sites. The products are long lasting and hard-wearing – and the best feature about their products is their flexibility of use. Around 150 Laddertags are used at our three different venues for concerts, exhibiting and hosting parties. The system has now become a company requirement – and if there isn’t an existing solution to an issue Scafftag is prepared to make one.”
